Default Different Rollup On date Dim - 12-27-2004 , 06:33 AM






Hi,
I have a warehouse cube and I want to have different rollup for the Time
dimension. Is it possible?
If I have only two dimensions (product and time) I'd like to see sum of
product dimension and average of time. Would look like this (type one
products only):

Jan Fev Mar Apr Avg
Prod 1 10 10 10 10 10
Prod 2 10 10 10 10 10
Total 20 20 20 20 20

I am using Analisys Services 2000 with Sp3a and Excel as the front end.

I also would like to show a different rollup for a different level on
product dim. Like If I'm looking in the product level the rollup is sum,
however if I'm looking at the product type level I`d like to see Average. Is
it possible?


Jan Fev Mar Apr Avg
Prod Type 1 20 20 20 20 20
Prod Type 2 10 10 10 10 10
Avg 15 15 15 15 15


I think I'll need calculated members and custom rollup all at once. But I
have no idea on how to do it.

Thanks a lot for your help.
